Hello Horizonte!

There will be no time for the students to blog tonight.

Today we boarded the bus and drove from La Anita Rainforest Ranch to the Horizonte research station. A quick stop at the mall in Liberia was a welcome treat for all.

We have just finished dinner and will soon board a bus for an evening excursion to the beach. While there we hope to encounter an East Pacific Green Turtle laying eggs.

Teams of students will take turns patrolling the beach while others sleep. Although July is not a typical time to see such activity, recent Seeds of Change student groups have had great luck on this beach. We are crossing all our fingers and toes that we are fortunate as well!

The girls received much praise again today for the wonderful job they did with their presentations last night. We are so very proud of these fine young women. They bring great credit upon themselves, their families, and their school.

  1. So happy you all get to see guard the turtles! And glad your projects were well done and well received. I hope you learned a ton. Learning is really its own reward. As Oliver Wendall Holmes said: "A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions." I have a feeling that your minds have been stretched beyond your wildest expectation! Enhorabuena a todas!
